AUDUSD buyers flex muscles for further ruling, 0.6820 is crucialAUDUSD marked the biggest weekly gain since early November 2022, not to forget mentioning the second in a row, backed by RBA’s hawkish surprise. The Aussie pair, however, currently jostles with the key upside hurdle as the key week comprising the US inflation and Federal Reserve (Fed) monetary policy decision looms. That said, a four-month-old descending resistance line and the 200-EMA, challenge the bulls near 0.6750. Following that, the previous monthly high surrounding 0.6820 is the last stand for bears to leave before giving control to the bulls. In a case where the quote remains firmer past 0.6820, the 0.6850 and the late 2022 peak of around 0.6900 will be in the spotlight. Meanwhile, pullback moves may initially aim for the 50% Fibonacci retracement level of the AUDUSD pair’s run-up from October 2022 to February 2023, close to 0.6660. In a case where sellers dominate past 0.6660, lows marked in April and March, respectively near 0.6570 and 0.6560, will be on their radars. It should be noted that the yearly low marked in May around 0.6455 appears the final fight for the bulls to win, if not then the pair’s southward trajectory towards a 78.6% Fibonacci retracement level of near 0.6375 can’t be ruled out.

Gold prints bearish triangle as the dull week approaches its endDespite bracing for the second consecutive weekly gain, the Gold buyers appear running out of steam as the metal stays within a three-week-old bearish triangle, recently bouncing off the chart pattern’s bottom line. The latest recovery may initially gain momentum on breaking the weekly resistance line, around $1,965 by the press time, which in turn can challenge the 200-EMA surrounding $1,973. However, the XAUUSD buyers remain off the table unless witnessing a clear upside break of the stated triangle’s top line, close to $1,982 by the press time. Meanwhile, Gold sellers can retake control on witnessing a clear downside break of the stated triangle’s bottom line, around $1,942 at the latest. Following that, the yearly low of near $1,932 may act as an extra check towards the south before dragging the quote towards the theoretical target of the triangle break, which is $1,888. However, multiple supports near $1,910 and the $1,900 threshold could challenge the bullion bears on their ruling. Overall, Gold portrays bearish consolidation by the end of the unimpressive week. Though the next one is all-important as it comprises monetary policy meetings of the Fed and ECB.

USDCAD portrays bearish consolidation on BoC DayUSDCAD remains unimpressive after breaking a seven-week-old horizontal support zone the previous day. That said, the RSI (14) rebounds from oversold territory and hence lures the buyers. However, a clear upside break of the support-turned-resistance area surrounding 1.3410, backed by the Bank of Canada’s (BoC) hawkish tone, becomes necessary to convince buyers. Even so, the 200-SMA hurdle of near 1.3520 and a three-week-old resistance area surrounding 1.3565-70 can check the upside momentum before directing it to the previous monthly peak of around 1.3655 and then to April’s top near 1.3670. On the flip side, BoC is expected to keep the benchmark rates unchanged and hence a dovish tone or a signal to cut rates in futures would be enough to convince USDCAD bears. In that case, an upward-sloping support line from mid-April, close to 1.3350 by the press time, appears the key support for the pair sellers to watch during the quote’s further weakness. Should the Loonie pair sellers manage to keep the reins past 1.3350, the odds of witnessing a downward trajectory towards the yearly low marked in January around 1.3260 can’t be ruled out. To sum up, USDCAD is likely to recover but the upside hinges on how well the BoC can defend hawks despite keeping the monetary policy unchanged.

EURUSD eyes further downside before important EU, US dataEURUSD’s break of a six-month-old ascending support line, as well as poking of the 200-day EMA, set the tone for the major currency pair’s additional weakness as markets await the Eurozone inflation and US employment numbers. Adding strength to the downside bias are the bearish MACD signals. However, the RSI (14) is nearly oversold and hence suggests bottom-picking, which in turn highlights the 1.0600 round figure as short-term key support. Following that, the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement of the pair’s late November-April upside, near 1.0555 will precede the lows marked in March and January, respectively near 1.0515 and 1.0480 as the last defense of the buyers. On the contrary, EURUSD recovery may initially battle with the 1.0700 round figure to convince intraday buyers. Following that, a convergence of the aforementioned support-turned-resistance line and the two-week-old falling trend line, near 1.0715, will precede the 100-day EMA hurdle of 1.0775 to restrict the short-term upside of the major currency pair. In a case where the quote remains firmer past 1.0775, multiple levels around 1.0845-50 may prod the bulls before giving them control. Overall, EURUSD lands on the bear’s radar as the key factors loom.

AUDUSD remains vulnerable to testing sub-0.6400 zoneAUDUSD remains on the bear’s side after breaking the key support line in the last week. The nearly oversold RSI, however, allowed the quote to consolidate in the last few days while the bearish MACD signals keep sellers hopeful. Hence, the Aussie pair remains vulnerable to testing an eight-month-old horizontal support zone surrounding 0.6380 while any further downside may witness a pause before challenging the previous yearly low of around 0.6170. Meanwhile, any corrective bounce needs validation from the previous support line of around 0.6610. Following that, AUDUSD recovery towards the 100-DMA hurdle surrounding 0.6765 can’t be ruled out. It should be noted that the monthly high of near 0.6820 and the December 2022 peak of near 0.6895, quickly followed by the 0.6900 round figure, will act as extra filters toward the north. In a case where the AUDUSD pair remains firmer past 0.6900, a run-up towards the current yearly top of near 0.7160 can’t be ruled out. Overall, AUDUSD remains on the way to refreshing the yearly low unless crossing the 0.6900 mark.

Gold sellers need acceptance below $1,928 to dominate furtherGold braces for the third consecutive weekly loss as it challenges a six-month-old bullish trend channel formation. That said, bearish MACD signals join a three-week-old descending resistance line to keep XAUUSD sellers hopeful, the nearly oversold RSI conditions and the key support near $1,928 stop bears from taking control. As a result, the metal’s further downside appears elusive unless witnessing a daily close below $1,928. Following that, a quick fall to the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement level of October 2022 to May 2023 upside, near the $1,900 round figure, can’t be ruled out. However, the early March swing high of near $1,860 and March’s monthly low of $1,804, quickly followed by the $1,800 threshold, might allow bears to take a breather afterward. Meanwhile, the Gold price recovery hinges on a clear upside break of the three-week-old bearish trend line, close to $1,962 at the latest. Should the quote manage to remain firmer past $1,962, the $2,000 psychological magnet could gain the bullion buyer’s attention. It’s worth noting that the Gold price upside past $2,000 needs validation from $2,050 and the latest all-time high surrounding $2,080 to aim for the fresh record high, which in turn highlights the previously mentioned rising channel’s top line near $2,120. Overall, Gold is likely to decline further but needs to sustain below $1,928 to convince bears.

Gold fades upside momentum within rising wedgeGold price eyes the first weekly loss in three as it retreats inside a 15-week-old rising wedge. However, the 21-day EMA adds strength to the $2,008 support, a break of which will confirm the bearish chart pattern suggesting a theoretical fall toward $1,750. That said, the $2,000 psychological magnet will precede the multiple lows marked near $1,970 and February’s peak of around $1,960 to act as an intermediate halt ahead of the aforementioned theoretical target of the wedge. It should be noted that the year-to-date bottom of around $1,810 may offer an extra filter towards the south. On the contrary, Gold price recovery may initially aim for $2,050 ahead of challenging the stated wedge’s top line surrounding $2,075. In a case where the XAUUSD bulls defy the bearish chart formation by crossing the $2,075 hurdle, the recently flashed all-time high of around $2,080 and the $2,100 will be in the spotlight. Overall, the Gold buyers appear to run out of steam and the rising wedge teases the bears. However, the downside appears challenging and has multiple speed-breakers, including the mixed signals flashed by the RSI (14) line and MACD signals.

EURUSD teases sellers on US inflation dayAfter multiple failures to cross the 1.1100 hurdle, EURUSD broke a five-week-old ascending support line as US Consumer Price Index (CPI) for April looms. The major currency pair’s bearish signal also gains support from the downbeat MACD and RSI conditions. However, the 50-DMA and 100-DMA levels, respectively near 1.0850 and 1.0785, can check the Euro bears before giving them control. Even so, tops marked during late 2022 around 1.0710 may act as the last defense of the buyers before directing prices towards the YTD lows of around 1.0515. Meanwhile, a corrective bounce remains elusive unless rising back beyond the previous support line stretched from early April, close to 1.1000 by the press time. Even so, a three-month-old upward-sloping resistance line, close to 1.1100, appears a tough nut to crack for the EURUSD bulls to regain their power. Following that, a run-up towards the late March 2022 high of near 1.1185 will be in the spotlight. Overall, EURUSD bulls have finally stepped back after multiple attempts to conquer the 1.1100. However, their defeat isn’t confirmed yet as the US inflation data and the key support can surprise markets. Hence, there prevails a need to be cautious while trading this key event.

AUDUSD buyers need successful break of 0.6810 to keep controlAUDUSD remains firmer inside an 11-week-old trading range, poking the 100-DMA hurdle of 0.6790 of late. Apart from the 100-DMA, the stated range’s top line, close to 0.6810, also challenges the Aussie pair buyers. It’s worth noting, however, that the RSI conditions approach the overbought territory and hence the 0.6810 hurdle appears crucial for bulls to cross to keep the reins. Following that, a run-up towards 0.6870 and the mid-February swing high near 0.7030 can’t be ruled out. In a case where the quote rises past 0.7030, the yearly high marked in February near 0.7160 may be expected. Meanwhile, pullback moves may initially aim for the 50% Fibonacci retracement level of October 2022 to February 2023 upside, near 0.6665, ahead of challenging the stated trading range’s bottom of surrounding 0.6560. Also acting as a downside filter is the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement near 0.6550, known as the golden Fibonacci ratio. If at all the AUDUSD bears occupy the driver’s seat past 0.6550, the sellers may carve out a gradual fall towards the November 2022 bottom of near 0.6270 and then to the late 2022 low of around 0.6170. To sum up, AUDUSD buyers are likely to keep the reins but a pullback can’t be ruled out.

USDJPY grinds higher inside five-month-old bearish triangleUSDJPY marked the first negative weekly close in four despite Friday’s gains. Following that, the Yen pair remains inside an ascending triangle bearish chart formation comprising multiple levels marked since early December 2022. That said, the RSI and MACD conditions also signal a continuation of the recent rebound within the stated triangle. With this, the top line of the aforementioned chart formation, close to 137.80 at the latest, gains the market’s attention, a break of which could defy the bearish pattern and can propel prices towards the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement of October 2022 to January 2023 downside, at 142.50. It should be noted that the 140.00 round figure can act as an intermediate halt during the anticipated rise whereas a successful rise past 142.50 won’t hesitate to aim for the 78.6% Fibonacci retracement level surrounding 146.70. Meanwhile, the 100-DMA joins the 23.6% Fibonacci retracement level to provide strong short-term support within the triangle around 132.80. Following that, the triangle’s lower line, close to 131.90, will be crucial to watch as a clear break of the same could confirm the theoretical fall towards 121.00. While chasing the said target, the lows marked during January 2023 and May 2022, respectively near 127.20 and 126.30, may act as intermediate halts. However, the USDJPY pair’s weakness past 121.00 could witness multiple supports around the 120.00 psychological magnet. Overall, USDJPY is likely to decline further as Fed vs. BoJ divergence eases. Though, a clear downside break of 131.90 becomes necessary to convince bears.

Gold sellers eye consecutive third weekly loss, $1,935 in focusRepeated attempts to mark a downside break of the HKEX:1 ,980-79 support confluence comprising a fortnight-old symmetrical triangle, as well as the 200-SMA, keep Gold bears hopeful of posting a third weekly loss in a row. However, a six-week-long horizontal support zone around HKEX:1 ,935 appears a tough nut to crack for the XAUUSD sellers, especially amid the downbeat RSI (14) line. Should the metal prices remain weak past HKEX:1 ,935, the HKEX:1 ,900 round figure and the mid-March swing low of around HKEX:1 ,885 will be in the spotlight. Meanwhile, a corrective bounce in the bullion price needs to stay beyond the 100-SMA and top line of the stated triangle, respectively near HKEX:2 ,003 and HKEX:2 ,010, may gold the Gold buyers. It’s worth noting that the quote’s successful trading past HKEX:2 ,010 enables it to challenge the YTD peak of near HKEX:2 ,050 whereas any further advances could aim for the HKEX:2 ,070 key hurdle comprising the previous yearly top and the 61.8% Fibonacci Expansion (FE) of the metal’s March 15 to April 19 moves. Overall, Gold stays on the bear’s table after an initial attempt to lure the bulls. However, the next week’s Federal Reserve (Fed) monetary policy meeting outcome will be crucial to watch for clear directions.

AUDUSD eyes further downside on Australia inflation dayAUDUSD stays below the key support line stretched from the last October, after multiple rejections from the 100-DMA hurdle, as traders analyze Australian inflation data on Wednesday. With a clear break of important previous support joining downbeat RSI and bearish MACD signals, the Aussie pair has a further downside to track. The same highlights the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement of the pair’s October 2022 to February 2023 upside, near 0.6545, as immediate support to watch. Following that, the late October swing high near 0.6520 and the 78.6% Fibonacci retracement surrounding 0.6380 could lure the Aussie bears. Meanwhile, the AUDUSD rebound needs to remain successfully beyond the aforementioned previous support line from late 2022, close to 0.6685 at the latest, to push back the bearish bias. In a case where the Aussie pair rises past 0.6685, the 100-DMA level near 0.6800 could regain the market’s attention as a break of which will lure the bulls. Should the quote remains bearish past 0.6800, the December 2022 peak of around 0.6895 and the 0.6900 round figure could act as the last defense of the sellers. Overall, AUDUSD finally slips into the bear’s radar and is likely to drop further unless the quote stays beyond 0.6800.

Gold needs to break $1,980 support for short-term downsideGold price grinds lower between a three-month-old ascending resistance line and an upward-sloping trend line from late March. That said, the quote recently bounced off a convergence of the 21-day EMA and an upward-sloping support line from March 22, close to HKEX:1 ,980, which in turn suggests the commodity’s further recovery towards the HKEX:2 ,020 immediate hurdle. However, nearly overbought RSI and nearness to the aforementioned multi-month-old resistance line, currently around HKEX:2 ,045, could challenge the XAUUSD bulls. Meanwhile, a downside break of the HKEX:1 ,980 support confluence could quickly drag the Gold price toward February’s high of around HKEX:1 ,960. Following that, 50% and 61.8% Fibonacci retracement of its late November 2022 to early April 2023 upside, near HKEX:1 ,890 and HKEX:1 ,853 in that order, could test the Gold sellers. It’s worth noting that the XAUUSD remains on the buyer’s radar unless it offers a daily closing below the 200-day EMA level of around HKEX:1 ,845. Overall, the Gold price is likely to grind higher unless breaking the HKEX:1 ,845 level. That said, a downside break of HKEX:1 ,980 can trigger the metal’s short-term fall.

Gold buyers run out of steam before final dose of US dataGold price seesaws near the highest levels since March 2022 inside a one-month-old bullish channel. The bullion recently makes rounds to the upper line of the stated bullish formation amid overbought RSI (14), which in turn suggests that the buyers are running out of steam and a pullback is in the offing. The same highlights the 61.8% Fibonacci Expansion (FE) level of the metal’s moves between March 22 and April 10, around HKEX:2 ,041, as the immediate support. Following that, the previous weekly top surrounding HKEX:2 ,031 and the HKEX:2 ,000 round figure could lure the XAUUSD bears. It’s worth noting, however, that a convergence of the 100-EMA and the aforementioned channel’s lower line, close to HKEX:1 ,980-78, as the key support to watch during the quote’s further downside. Above all, the metal’s bearish trend remains elusive unless it trades beyond the 200-EMA level surrounding HKEX:1 ,947. On the contrary, a successful upside break of the HKEX:2 ,050 defies the expectations of witnessing a pullback in the Gold price. Even so, the 78.6% FE level of around HKEX:2 ,057 can test the bulls before directing them to the previous yearly high of near HKEX:2 ,070. In a case where the bullion remains firmer past HKEX:2 ,070, the record high of HKEX:2 ,075, marked in 2020, will precede the 100% FE level of HKEX:2 ,078 to act as the final defense of the short-term sellers prior to propelling the quote towards the HKEX:2 ,100 round figure. Overall, Gold price appears to have had enough of a run-up in the week and may witness a retreat. In doing so, the lower high on RSI and higher high of prices, known as bearish divergence, may play its role, if not the US Dollar.

Two-month-old resistance line challenges EURUSD bullsEURUSD bulls struggle at an 11-week-high as an upward-sloping trend line resistance challenges the major currency pair’s further upside around the 1.1000 psychological magnet. Adding strength to the stated resistance is the overbought RSI conditions. Even if the quote manages to cross the 1.1000 hurdle, the YTD high marked in February around 1.1035 could act as an additional upside filter for the bulls to tackle before approaching the late March 2022 peak around 1.1185. Following that, the previous yearly high of 1.1495 will be in focus. Alternatively, the EURUSD pullback could initially aim for the 1.0930 resistance-turned-support area comprising multiple levels marked in the last two months, a break of which will highlight the 100-SMA level of 1.0860 as the key support. It’s worth noting, however, that a clear downside break of 1.0860 won’t hesitate to drag the Euro pair toward the monthly low of near 1.0785. Though, the 200-SMA level of 1.0745 could restrict the quote’s south run afterward. To sum up, EURUSD bulls appear running out of steam and hence a pullback in prices can be expected. However, the bearish trend is still far from sight.

USDCAD stays on bear’s radar as US inflation, BoC loomsBe it a clear downside break of the 10-week-old ascending trend line or sustained trading below the 200-SMA, not to forget the latest fall below one-week-long rising trend line, USDCAD has it all to keep its place on the bear’s radar. The quote’s further downside, however, hinges on the Bank of Canada (BoC) monetary policy decision and the US Consumer Price Index data, as well as the FOMC Meeting Minutes. That said, the monthly low of around 1.3400 and multiple levels marked near the 78.6% Fibonacci retracement of the pair’s February-March upside, close to 1.3390, could test the Loonie pair sellers. In a case where the bears keep the reins past 1.3390, February’s low of around 1.3260 will be in focus. Meanwhile, USDCAD recovery initially needs to cross the weekly support-turned-resistance of around 1.3500 before poking the 50% Fibonacci retracement hurdle, around 1.3560, to convince intraday buyers. Even so, the previous support line from early February, close to 1.3615-20, could challenge the upside momentum. If at all the Loonie pair manages to cross the 1.3620 hurdle, a convergence of the 200-SMA and 38.2% Fibonacci retracement will act as the final defense for bears near 1.3630. Should the quote remains firmer past 1.3630, backed by price-positive fundamentals, a run-up towards 1.3740 and 1.3800 can’t be ruled out. To sum up, USDCAD is well-set for further downside on a key day for the pair traders.

AUDUSD signals fresh 2023 low despite recent reboundBe it a clear rejection of a one-month-old bullish channel or sustained trading below the key SMAs, not to forget dovish RBA, AUDUSD has it all to convince bears. That said, the Aussie pair currently recovers towards the stated channel’s top line around 0.6685. Even if the quote crosses the stated upside hurdle, a convergence of the 100-SMA and 200-SMA, close to 0.6700, appears a tough nut to crack for the counter-trend traders. Should the Aussie pair remains firmer past 0.6700, the previous monthly high of near 0.6785 and the aforementioned channel’s top line, close to 0.6820, can act as the last defense of the bears before giving control to the bulls. On the contrary, the 0.6600 round figure lures AUD/USD bears, a break of which could challenge the YTD low surrounding 0.6560. It’s worth noting that the RSI is near the oversold territory and hence suggests limited downside room before portraying the pair’s corrective bounce. However, the quote’s weakness past 0.6560 won’t hesitate to aim for the 61.8% Fibonacci Expansion (FE) level of its mid-February to early April moves, near the 0.6500 round figure. Overall, AUDUSD is well-set on the bear’s radar for marking further downside unless any fundamental surprises.

USDJPY rebound appears unimpressive below 133.80USDJPY reverses the early-month losses by keeping the bounce off a nine-week-old ascending support line. That said, the RSI and MACD oscillators also suggest the gradual building of upside momentum. However, a downward sloping resistance line from early March, around 132.65-70, followed by the 200-SMA level of 133.80, appears short-term key hurdles to challenge the Yen pair buyers before giving them control. Following that, an area comprising multiple levels marked in March, around 135.10-25, could test the north run before signaling the run-up towards the yearly high marked the previous month around 137.90. On the contrary, USDJPY pullback remains elusive until the quote stays beyond a two-month-old ascending support line, close to 130.90 at the latest. Also acting as short-term key support is the 130.00 round figure. It’s worth noting, however, that the Yen pair sellers need validation from the 129.80-60 region before taking control. In that case, the pair can easily challenge the yearly low marked in February at around 128.00. Overall, USDJPY lures buyers but the upside momentum remains elusive below 133.80.

USDJPY attracts bullish bias till it stays above 131.00USDJPY marked the first weekly gain in five while luring bulls to cross the 100-bar Exponential Moving Average (EMA). The upward trajectory could also be witnessed by a one-week-long ascending trend channel, as well as a successful break of a downward-sloping trend line from early March. The RSI retreat, however, challenges the Yen pair buyers of late. That said, the 100-EMA and the stated channel’s lower line, respectively around 132.60 and 132.10, restrict the quote’s short-term downside. It should be noted that a three-week-long previous resistance line, around 131.00 by the press time, appears the last defense of the bulls. On the other hand, the stated channel’s top line, close to 133.90, caps the immediate upside of the USDJPY pair. Following that, the mid-March high of 135.10 and the late February swing low surrounding 135.25-30 can check the pair buyers. In a case where the Yen pair buyers hold the reins past 135.30, the odds of witnessing a fresh Year-To-Date (YTD) high, currently around 137.90, can’t be ruled out. Overall, USDJPY is back on the buyer’s radar after a four-week absence. The bulls, however, have a bumpy road towards the north.

EURUSD grapples with 1.0930 hurdle ahead of EU, US inflation EURUSD braces for the biggest weekly gains since early January even as it eases from a 2.5-month-old horizontal resistance area surrounding 1.0930 ahead of this week’s top-tier data, namely the Eurozone and US inflation clues. That said, a fortnight-long ascending support line joins firmer oscillators to keep Euro pair buyers hopeful of crossing the critical upside barrier holding the key for the quote’s run-up towards challenging the yearly top surrounding 1.1035. In a case where the pair remains firmer past 1.1035, which is less likely considering the RSI (14) line’s nearly overbought conditions, the 61.8% Fibonacci Expansion (FE) of its November 2022 to March 2023 moves, near 1.1200. On the contrary, pullback moves need to break the immediate two-week-old support line, close to 1.0840 at the latest, to lure intraday EURUSD sellers. Even so, a convergence of the 50-DMA and 23.6% Fibonacci retracement of November-February upside, near 1.0730, can put a floor under the price. Following that, the 100-DMA, the monthly low and January’s bottom, around 1.0615, 1.0515 and 1.0480 in that order, may act as the last defenses of the pair buyers, a break of which could hand over control to the bears. Overall, EURUSD is on the bull’s radar and is very much capable of refreshing the yearly top. However, it all depends upon today’s inflation data and hence Euro bulls should wait for the actual data before taking any major positions.

Gold inks bullish consolidation inside key rising trend channelGold price seesaws around the top line of a five-month-old bullish channel, recently supported by the 10-day EMA. It’s worth noting, however, that the smaller gap towards the north joins descending RSI (14) line and easing bullish bias of the MACD signals to keep XAUUSD sellers hopeful. However, a clear downside break of the 10-day EMA, around $1,955 by the press time, becomes necessary to convince intraday sellers. Even so, the $1,900 round figure and a horizontal area comprising multiple levels marked since early February, near $1,860, could restrict the metal’s further downside. In a case where the commodity remains bearish past $1,860, the stated channel’s lower line and the 200-day EMA, respectively near $1,841 and $1,825, act as the last defense of the buyers. On the contrary, the $2,000 psychological magnet keeps restricting the short-term upside of the Gold price, a break of which could push XAUUSD bulls towards the 61.8% Fibonacci Extension of the metal’s moves between November 2022 and late February 2023, close to $2,017. Should the precious metal remains firmer past $2,017, the aforementioned channel’s resistance line, close to $2,021, may become the only hurdle between the bulls and the previous yearly top surrounding $2,070. Overall, the Gold price stays inside a bullish chart formation despite having limited room towards the north.

The Aussie pair’s further advances, however, remained gradual and portray a 13-day-old bullish channel. That said, the quote picks up bids inside the aforementioned bullish chart formation ahead of Australia’s monthly Consumer Price Index (CPI) data for February. Given the likely easing inflation pressure in the Pacific major’s economy, the 200-bar Exponential Moving Average (EMA) hurdle of around 0.6740 gains attention ahead of the stated channel’s top line, close to 0.6760. It’s worth noting that the mid-February swing high surrounding 0.6785 acts as the last check for the Aussie pair buyers. Alternatively, a downside break of the 0.6640 support, comprising the lower line of the bullish channel, could quickly drag the AUDUSD price towards the resistance-turned-resistance line from early February, close to 0.6575. It’s worth noting that the Aussie pair’s weakness past 0.6575 can witness a bumpy road as the yearly bottom of 0.6562 and the last October’s peak near 0.6545 may challenge the bears afterward.
